DIRECTIONS:
———————————-

On Wednesday, October 3rd we will post our support on Twitter for Gary Johnson during the first televised presidential debate. We will use the hashtag #GaryJohnsonForPresident and concentrate these tweets between 8:45 PM and 10:30 PM Eastern to trend the hashtag during the debate.

We will track the number of tweets and participants at http://hashtaglab.com/hashtag/garyjohnsonforpresident
(this will go live before the event).

Tips:

1. Go light on using the hashtag #GaryJohnsonForPresident before the Twitter bomb.

2. Always include the hashtag #GaryJohnsonForPresident in your tweets during the Twitter bomb.

3. Schedule your tweets ahead of time using a program such as Tweetdeck or Hootsuite to make sure you don’t forget to post at the required time. This is the most important thing to do to make us trend.

4. There is a list of 60+ tweets below that you can cut and paste and use for the Twitter bomb.

5. Tweet as many times as possible between 8:45 and 10:30 PM Eastern. A tweet a minute is best. We will only trend by
flooding Twitter with tweets using the #GaryJohnsonForPresident hashtag and doing that more than the other campaigns. If you don’t want to bombard your followers with tweets, you can place a twitter address at the front of your tweet and it will not appear in their feed.

For example:
@gov Vote #GaryJohnsonForPresident to end the overseas wars. @GovGaryJohnson

6. Posting on time is absolutely crucial to trending on Twitter. We need to create a sudden upsurge in the posting of our hashtag.
If you are going to tweet live rather than schedule your tweets ahead of time, please plan to be ready at least ten minutes early.
We need everyone to start posting at 8:45 PM Eastern or much of our collective effort is wasted.

7. Be aware of the time zone difference. We are holding this event starting at 8:45 PM EASTERN. So if you are in a different time zone
you need to calculate the difference. If you live in California, for instance, you would need to post beginning at 5:45 PM.

8. Make sure that your Twitter account is set to public so that your tweets count towards the trend.

9. If you are just opening your Twitter account you will probably be limited in the number of tweets you can post, but any number
helps. Please remember to post a profile picture on your account as it makes it appear more legitimate.

9. Retweets count towards making the hashtag trend. You can search on “#GaryJohnsonForPresident” to find other people to retweet, but it is better if you are posting the tweets from your own account.
